Tips for making development teams work better

I finally installed Update 1 for Visual Studio, and found a feature that solves my ‘numero uno’ gripe with Visual Studio – having to use ‘Find All References’ to find the implementation for an interface.

The new feature is a menu item called ‘Go To Implementation’ – you can put your cursor into any method exposed via an interface, and instantly go to its implementation without using Ctrl K-R to find all references, and scrolling to the last item in the list.

It’s a real time-saver, especially once you assign a keyboard shortcut.

Of course, Update 1 has tons of other new features, and I’m excited about the new functionality around CPU profiling – knowing more about the internal workings of my code is always a good thing.

There’s a new version of the .NET framework (4.6.1 ), including a whole bunch of new features and bug fixes.

The full release notes can be found here, and for more info on CPU Profiling in VS 2015, go to this blog.
